As I have posted on a message from Sunday (Subject: No Overnet Peers) I am  
using pango 2.00+20021201a release. I posted there that I already tried  
'ovweb' command quite often, but it never did 'enhance' my overnet_peers[]  
list. So I tried to do it by hand. :)

ovstats prints out always the same message; even now when my servers.ini  
is filled with those manually added overnet peers it prints out:

Overnet statistics:
  Connected Peers: 0
  Search hits: 0
  Source hits: 0

Okay, there goes my last hope, that I didn't enable overnet-support (I did  
enable those overnet_search_* commands, as stated in my message from  
sundy).

But I still don't know what is wrong with my setup, I just don't get it to  
work and those debug-messages mean nothing to me.

But thanks Martin for replying to my mail! I appreciate that a lot,  
because I didn't get much feedback on this issue no matter where I post.  
*sniff* ;)
